Meson: Using a Git project without Meson.Build as dependence

The MESON project that depends lack of dependencies

Have you ever encountered such a situation: an excellent project has no meson.build file, and the defender will not accept your pull request (PR), or even accept it? Alternatively, your project needs to add a license document every time you build, but the defender refuses to do this?

Don't worry! You can solve this problem by adding a git patch to . subprojects/*.wrap

For example, in my project ONUR, I prefer to use Hoyt's HT tools instead of the huge Gnome Glib library, but the HT project does not have

files. meson.build

For this project without labels, a simple

configuration, using the main branch (wrap-git) as shown below: master

./subprojects/ht.wrap

First, download the Meson sub -project:

<code>[wrap-git]
directory=ht
url=https://github.com/benhoyt/ht
revision=master
depth=1</code>

. Then, add

File: meson subprojects download meson.build ./subprojects/ht

Next, create a patch file:

<code># 创建一个空的 meson.build 文件 (如果需要，可以添加内容)
touch ./subprojects/ht/meson.build </code>

Then, specify the patch file in file:

<code class="language-bash">mkdir -pv subprojects/{packagecache,packagefiles}
git -C ./subprojects/ht add meson.build
git -C ./subprojects/ht diff --cached > ./subprojects/packagefiles/ht-meson.patch</code>

ht.wrap Finally, apply patch and compile the project:

<code class="language-bash">echo "diff_files = ht-meson.patch" >> ./subprojects/ht.wrap</code>

executable files will appear in the

directory as expected.

<code class="language-bash">meson subprojects purge --confirm
meson subprojects download
CC=gcc meson setup ./build --wipe -D b_sanitize=none -D buildtype=release
meson compile -C ./build</code>
